Christmas & Holiday Lighting in Roslyn Estates

Roslyn Estates is the wooded village of winding lanes south of Roslyn — prewar Tudors and Colonials on hilly, tree-heavy lots with a strict preservation ethic. Between the Roslyn Estates Village Hall and the Roslyn Country Club edge the housing shifts from 1920s and '30s Tudors and Colonials on the village's wooded, winding lanes to consistently restored prewar homes around Roslyn LIRR station, with larger homes on the estate-style lots in between — three different jobs for a lighting crew.

Wooded lots don't fight the weather much — the challenge here is reaching the trees that are worth lighting without running cords across the lawn. That's the weather half of the job. The Roslyn Estates half: tudors get gable-edge outlines in warm white; the half-timbering stays dark — the village favors understated displays. Tree wraps, driveway pathway lights, and the roofline each get their own circuit and timer, laid out on the design visit.
